Something I often remind myself of...
There’s a subtle lens many of us carry… a lens that whispers:
“Do it better.”
“Do it right.”
“Do it perfectly.”
It shows up so quietly in how we speak, create, share, move, rest, or even breathe.
And before we know it, perfection becomes the standard, and anything less feels like a failure.
Here’s the truth I keep remembering:
In the lens of perfectionism, we lose the essence of what is!
We lose the raw, honest, alive texture of our experience.
We lose the beauty of our own uniqueness.
Perfectionism tries to polish life until it becomes sterile.
Uniqueness lets life be real, earthy, human, and beautifully imperfect.
Perfection creates distance.
Uniqueness creates connection.
Perfection demands.
Uniqueness expresses.
Perfection restricts.
Uniqueness breathes.
And yet—this lens is subtle. It seeps into daily life:
how we show up on a call,
how we post on social media,
how we hold our relationships,
how we judge our progress,
how we measure and compare our journey.
So the practice is not to eliminate perfectionism instantly.
It’s to **remember and redefine**, again and again, that it isn’t real.
It’s a story, not a truth.
A perception, not reality.
A conditioning, not a necessity.
A habit, not our essence.
Or
Choose a reality and rewrite the story that "Everything is already perfect as it is!"
What is real is our presence.
Our expression.
Our aliveness.
Our uniqueness — the very thing perfectionism tries to overwrite.
So today, remind yourself gently:
✨ *Everything is perfect as it is.*
✨ *My uniqueness is my truth.*
✨ *I can return to myself again and again.*
And every time you remember, even for a moment…
that is perfect enough. 😋
